Well on my way home from college this past friday some guy revved his silveraod at me on the highway. Judjung by te sound it was a V8 but by it's performance it was a 4.8 V8 with just an exhaust. Well the guy took off first and I punched it. I cought up to him quite fast and passed him. I rev my truck at him but only to like 5000 RPM. Mind you that this is all going on a 65mph highway :lol: I know that what I did could harm the tranny but I was feeling cockey cause I beat him the first time but i did hear that his truck didn't downshift correctly so I gave him a second chance. Well we both go and I notice my truck held on to 2nd a little longer than usual but didn't think nothing about it till I looked at my ScanGuage II the next day to check my MPG average over a 130 mile trip home. When i looked at it I was suprized to say the least. this is what I found :shock:

Not surprising to me at all - It's not an instant RPM cut - it merely cuts the fuel. And since you are accelerating the pistons when the fuel cut happens they are going to reach a peak speed which may just happen to be higher than the RPM at which fuel cut happens.

Got away this weekend again for a little more fishing, camping, off-roading...
First time hauling a 4 wheeler in the bed, Honda Recon 250 fit great with room to spare. Loving the long box again and again...It was a nice "leveling kit" for a couple of days with the wheeler and all other gear.
